Weibo tipster @DigitalChatStation says that Huawei is ready to unveil the Mate 70 series in mid-November. The company is gearing up the launch preparations.

The new Mate lineup will bring four models: Standard, Pro, Pro+, and Mate 70 RS Ultimate Design. The camera framework is likely to be similar to the leaked lens cover.

Mate 70 series handsets may have the Mate 50-like camera module. Meanwhile, the RS Ultimate Design variant will have the signature lens bump.

Speaking of the design, the tipster says that the Huawei Mate 70 series will have a thinner, narrower, and more rounded look than Mate 60 models. It will ease the holding scenarios, making the grip much better as well as more comfortable.

Mate 60 phones are slightly wider than Mate 50. It offers a huge screen for better visuals. But when it comes to holding the device, the Mate 60 series appears a problem to many users. Although Huawei might solve this issue with the next lineup.

The latest leak hints that the phone maker will improve the overall device-holding experience with the Mate 70 smartphones. Apart from a slimmer and narrower design, the new handsets could also feature more rounded corners than before.

It’s November and expectations to witness the Mate 70 unveiling this month have reached at peak. During the HDC 2024 event, Huawei said that the new flagship will launch in Q4 2024 but an exact time has been awaiting for months.

Although the wait could end after the Double 11 Sale event. A few leaks say that Huawei may launch the Mate 70 series around November 20. Let’s wait for some more days to catch the official glimpse of the new devices.

FixedFocus revealed that the Huawei Mate 70 series cell won’t exceed the 6000mAh capacity. None of the models carry a giant battery like that of the Magic 7 lineup.

Although another tipster in the comment section hints that the Huawei Mate 70 series will likely provide improved and more reliable battery life than ever before.

Some netizens even predicted that Huawei could use a 5500 or 5700mAh battery for the Mate 70 smartphones this time. A good cell capacity offers more efficient and longer-lasting power to a device, making it more durable for every scenario.

For reference, the Huawei Mate 60 series contains a 5000mAh battery, except for the standard model (4750mAh). It would be worth seeing if the company makes any changes to this configuration or uses the same capacity for the next lineup.

Apart from the cell, HarmonyOS NEXT is also said to contribute to the Mate 70 models’ battery life. The new OS version claims to offer at least one hour of extra battery life to devices compared to the previous software (HarmonyOS 4.2).

Zhao Ming – the CEO of Honor attended an exclusive interview after the Magic 7 series launch event. During the interrogation, a reporter asked if the company sees any biggest competitor in the fierce flagship smartphone competition. “Is it Mate 70?”

Ming replied that Huawei Mate 70 feels like the strongest rival at present. The executive said he doesn’t doubt the respective phone’s potential to rule the market.

He added that Honor is still growing and it wouldn’t be right to talk about rivals this early. The company only aims to develop better devices and the rest of the decision is in consumers’ hands.

“Huawei Mate 70 is the strongest competitor of all brands, there is no doubt about that. …we’re still growing and it is too early to talk about competitors. We must do our best and let consumers recognize our products.” – Zhao Ming.

The Honor CEO implied that the Huawei Mate 70 could be the toughest competitor in the market. The flagship series will enter the real world by next month.

Zhao mentioned that Honor has been working hard for the past few years to prove itself. Yet, it still sees certain doubts on R&D capabilities and the ability to innovate. The question “Can we develop better after being separated from Huawei” persists.

The CEO meant that Honor had to take major steps and implement new changes in terms of innovation. The company has introduced many useful solutions for its devices. For instance, the Qinghai Lake battery, Eagle Eye camera, and more.

“We relied on products and hard work. In this process, I think it is more important for Honor to be the best version of itself.” – said Zhao Ming.
